NOW Foods Melatonin 1 mg – 100 Tablets Melatonin is a hormone naturally produced by the pineal gland that helps regulate the body’s circadian rhythm and normal sleep–wake cycle. Its production is stimulated by darkness, with levels generally rising during the evening and declining towards morning. Factors such as ageing, shift work, jet lag and changes in daily schedules may disrupt the natural sleep cycle. NOW Foods Melatonin 1 mg provides a low dose of melatonin alongside niacin, vitamin B6 and magnesium. Melatonin contributes to reducing the time required to fall asleep. This beneficial effect is obtained by consuming 1 mg of melatonin close to bedtime. It can also help alleviate the subjective effects of jet lag when used according to the appropriate schedule.
